''Men and Dragons once lived in harmony on this land. However, that harmony was broken when the men suddenly started to invade. In a great war known as [[The Scouring]], both sides fought over control of the continent. The laws of nature were twisted from the vast amounts of power that were released...''
==Introduction==


''The Dragons were defeated and disappeared from the face of the continent. Mankind then began to spread its forces throughout to populate the land.''
Man and dragon once coexisted in harmony. However, man shattered that harmony with a sudden onslaught.


''And now, 1000 years later...''
A great war now known as the Scouring was fought for dominion of the land. Losses were tremendous for both sides, and in this war the very laws of nature itself were twisted and distorted, bringing chaos and unease...


''The people of the continent [[Elibe]] have been spreading technology and civilization for some time now, after the Dragons had been defeated in the Scouring.''
Defeated and humbled, the dragons disappeared from the realm. Mankind then began to rebuild and repopulate their newly won land.


''In the west resides the Kingdom of [[Etruria]], which has the highest level of civilization in Elibe. The Kingdom of [[Bern]], with a powerful military and a practical and pragmatic attitude about life, is located in the east.''
A milennium has passed since then...


''These are the two strongest nations in Elibe, and the lesser nations are located between them.''
__________________


''There is the [[Lycia|Lycian Alliance]], which is under joint relationship of various marquesses.''
''(The map of Elibe appears)''


''The people of the [[Ilia|Knights' Union of Ilia]] are hard at work cultivating the snowy wastelands in the north.''
After defeating the dragons, the humans of Elibe quickly spread their culture and civilization to the farthest reaches of the continent.


''In [[Sacae]] live various clans which ride through the plains on horseback.''
In the west lies the Kingdom of Etruria, which is widely considered to possess the most refined culture in all of Elibe. The Kingdom of Bern, with its powerful military and logical, pragmatic people, is located on the other side of the continent in the east.


''Although there were occasional clashes between nation-states, there was a general sense of balance of power and peace in Elibe. However, that balance was suddenly disrupted...''
These are the two most powerful nations in Elibe with the weaker nations situated between them. These smaller lands are... the Lycian League, whose numerous territories are independently ruled by a number of marquesses that are bound by a vow of allegiance; Ilia, where the people arduously till the frozen soil and many become mercenaries to earn money to survive; and Sacae, where various clans ride through the plains on horseback.  


''King [[Zephiel]], ruler of the Kingdom of Bern, has sent his forces out to conquer the rest of Elibe. Bern's forces invaded Sacae and Ilia, and mercilessly massacred all those who stood against them. And now, Bern has shown signs of invading the Lycian Alliance.''
Although there were occasional clashes between these nations, the majority of the people of Elibe lived in peace. That peace, however, was not to last...


A youth named [[Roy]] was in Lycia's largest territory, [[Ostia]]. He was sent as a transfer student to train to become the next marquess of [[Pherae]]. However, [[Eliwood]], who has fallen ill, has sent for Roy to return home.
King Zephiel of Bern has commanded his forces to conquer the entirety of Elibe. Bern's armies first attacked Sacae and Ilia, ruthlessly massacring all who opposed them. Now, Bern is mounting a merciless invasion into Lycia.


''Just around that time [[Lilina]], the daughter of [[Hector]], had traveled to Lycia to pay her respects to Eliwood.''
Pherae is a territory of Lycia known for its beauty and honorable lords. Pherae's Lord Roy was studying in the great territory of Ostia when the invasion began. However, the sitting marquess and Roy's father, Eliwood, who has been ill, has sent for Roy to return to lead Pherae's soldiers in defending against Bern.


''After getting the message, Roy hurried back home, taking with him his loyal knights and [[Bors]], a knight from Ostia responsible for Lilina's safety. The story begins when Roy had reached an area on the outskirts of Pherae...''
Marquess Hector of Ostia is Eliwood's long-time friend and confidant, and leads the council of lords in Lycia. At the time Eliwood sent for Roy, Marquess Ostia's daughter Lilina was in Pherae visiting Eliwood. Upon receiving his father's message, Roy hurries home, taking with him his vassals and Bors, a knight from Ostia who is responsible for Lilina's safety.


The story begins when Roy reaches the outskirts of Pherae...


<u>'''''Chapter 1: Dawn of Destiny'''''</u>
==Opening==


(At the outskirts of Pherae)
'''Bandit:''' Boss! They've all hidden themselves inside the castle!<br>
'''Damas:''' Heh. Even Eliwood, the greatest knight in Lycia, is no match for an illness, it seems.<br>
'''Bandit:''' Hee hee hee... You were right when you said there wouldn't be many soldiers. They're all getting ready to defend against Bern!<br>
'''Damas:''' Of course I was right. I'm always right, you fool. But reinforcements could be here any minute. All right, you curs, listen up! Kill everyone in the castle while we still got time! Then we can waltz outta here with all the loot!


'''Bandit:''' Boss! The residents of the castle have hidden themselves inside!
''(The bandits appear in Pherae)''


'''Damas:''' Heh, even Eliwood, the greatest knight in Lycia, can't beat an illness, eh?
''(One of the bandits approaches the village next to the castle)''


'''Bandit:''' Hehehe... You were right when you said there wouldn't be many soldiers around here because they're getting ready to take on Bern!
'''Bandit:''' Heh heh, castles ain't the only places with loot. Let's go ransack the villages and take everything they got!


'''Damas:''' Of course, who do you think I am? But you never know when reinforcements are going to come. All right! Kill off the guys in the castle while we still got time! Then the treasure is all ours!
''(The bandit walks into the village and destroys it)''


'''Bandit:''' Hehe, castles ain't the only places with treasure. Let's go ransack the village and get some loot!


(Village destroyed)
''(Inside the castle)''


(Castle Pherae)
'''Merlinus:''' Lord Eliwood! We're under attack by bandits from Mount Bolm!<br>
'''Eliwood:''' I understand. Thank you, Merlinus... Blast it! Were I not in this pitiful state, I would take care of them all myself...!<br>
'''Lilina:''' Lord Eliwood...?<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Lilina, you must hide yourself. This castle is going to become a war zone.<br>
'''Lilina:''' No, my lord. I can fight, too!<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Don't be absurd. I couldn't face Hector if something happened to you in my own castle.<br>
'''Lilina:''' My father? But...<br>
'''Eliwood:''' It's going to be all right. Roy should be here any moment, so we just need to hold our own until then. He'll drive off these dastards. Merlinus! Send a messenger to Roy to let him know the current situation! We need his help!<br>
'''Merlinus:''' Y-Yes, milord!


'''Merlinus:''' Master Eliwood! The bandits from Bolm Mountain are attacking us!
''(More bandits appear all across Pherae, walking in from the north; Roy's retinue arrives from the south at the same time. Lance, the messenger sent by Merlinus, rides from the castle and arrives at Roy's position)''


'''Eliwood:''' I see... Blast! If I weren't in this state, I would teach them a lesson...!
'''Roy:''' Oh, it's Lance! What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?<br>
'''Lance:''' Lord Roy! Bandits have appeared and are attacking the castle as we speak!<br>
'''Alen:''' No! Is the marquess unharmed?<br>
'''Lance:''' He's inside, defending against the bandits' attack. But I don't know how long he can last with his illness...!<br>
'''Bors:''' Excuse me. Lance, is it? Is Lady Lilina safe?<br>
'''Lance:''' You must be a knight of Ostia. Lady Lilina is in the castle. She should be all right. She's with Lord Eliwood after all, but he can't last forever.<br>
'''Roy:''' No... I shouldn't have let Lilina go to the castle before me.<br>
'''Wolt:''' Lord Roy, regret won't solve anything! We must retake the castle!<br>
'''Marcus:''' Wolt is right. We must make haste!<br>
'''Roy:''' Yes, you're right. This is no time to despair. Very well. To arms then! Our target is the castle! We must rescue everyone!


'''Lilina:''' Mister Eliwood...?
''(Lance takes his position among Roy's forces, and the battle begins)''


'''Eliwood:''' Lilina, you must hide somewhere. This castle is going to become a battlefield.
==In battle==


'''Lilina:''' No, sir. I will fight, too!
===On turn 1, enemy phase===


'''Eliwood:''' Don't be ridiculous. If something happened to you, I wouldn't know what to say to Hector.
''(Damas walks onto the throne)''


'''Lilina:''' To my father? But...
'''Damas:''' Curses! Reinforcements already! But they'll have to go through me to get into the castle!


'''Eliwood:''' It's going to be all right. Roy should be almost here by now, so if we can hold our own until then, we can drive off these bandits.
===Houses/villages===


'''Eliwood:''' Merlinus! I want you to send a messenger to Roy informing him of this attack immediately!
====The bottom house====


'''Merlinus:''' Y-Yes sir!
'''Middle-Aged Man:''' Money is vital for any army. If you don't have any, you won't be able to replace your broken weapons. And you can't fight without weapons!


(Back to the outskirts, where more bandits appear)
====The middle house====


'''Roy:''' Oh, it's Lance! What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?
'''Young Man:''' Listen! If you wanna do well in battle you'd better use terrain wisely. For example, if you're in a forest the trees will cover you. That'll teach your enemies who they're dealing with.


'''Lance:''' Master Roy! Bandits have appeared and are attacking the castle as we speak!
====The top house====


'''Alen:''' WHAT! Is Lord Eliwood safe?
'''Middle-Aged Woman:''' We're all doomed... Soldiers from Bern have crossed the border... They laid an awful attack. And even if the allied lords strike back, Lord Eliwood... He can't even stand anymore...


'''Lance:''' He's inside, defending against the bandits' attack. But I don't know how long he can last with his illness...!
====The village====


'''Bors:''' Excuse me, Lance, is it? Is Lady Lilina safe?
'''Young Woman:''' Are you knights going to the castle? I know this isn't much... But please accept this money on behalf of all of us. Use it well!


'''Lance:''' Are you from Ostia? Lady Lilina is in the castle. She should be all right, as long as Lord Eliwood is with her, but he can't last forever.
''(5,000 Gold)''


'''Roy:''' No... I shouldn't have let Lilina go to the castle before me.
===Battle quotes===


'''Wolt:''' Lord Roy, regret won't solve anything! We must recapture the castle!
====Damas enters combat====


'''Marcus:''' Wolt is right. We must hurry!
'''Damas:''' You bumbling idiots! You can't take down a few pathetic knights?!


'''Roy:''' Yeah. You're right. All right, let's go! We're going to save those trapped in the castle!
====Damas dies====


(Turn 1 begins)
'''Damas:''' Wh... what the...?! S... so strong...


(End of Turn 1)
==Ending==


'''Damas:''' Dammit! Reinforcements already?! But they ain't gettin' to the castle so easy!
'''Roy:''' Father! Lilina!<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Roy, is that you?<br>
'''Lilina:''' Roy!<br>
'''Roy:''' I'm so glad to see you both! Thank goodness you're unharmed.<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Thanks for the rescue, Roy.<br>
'''Roy:''' Of course, Father. How is your health?<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Well enough. I've some life in me yet. But Roy, do you know why I called you back here?<br>
'''Roy:''' I'm to take over your role by leading the soldiers of Pherae. We must join the rest of the Lycian Army to defend our people.<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Exactly. As you know, Bern has commenced an invasion of Lycia. We are honorbound to follow the vows of our allegiance. Lycia needs every lord's army, and we must oblige.<br>
'''Roy:''' Of course.<br>
'''Eliwood:''' I'm truly sorry to interrupt your studies and force you into this war, but I'm not well... I'm in no condition to lead an army.<br>
'''Roy:''' Father...<br>
'''Lilina:''' Lord Eliwood! I'll go with Roy! My father leads Lycia's largest army. And I'm certain my magic will be of help to Roy...<br>
'''Eliwood:''' No, Lilina. You must return to Ostia.<br>
'''Lilina:''' ...Why?<br>
'''Eliwood:''' With Hector preparing for battle, there is no one sitting on the throne of Ostia. It must be an uneasy feeling for the people not to have a sitting lord. As the daughter of the marquess, you must take the throne until Hector returns. That will put the people at ease. Do you have any objections?<br>
'''Lilina:''' ...No, my lord.<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Roy, I have arranged a contract with a group of mercenaries. You are to meet them at the border to Bern. Merlinus will accompany you. He is knowledgeable and experienced and should be of great help.<br>
'''Roy:''' Thank you for everything, Father.<br>
'''Eliwood:''' Don't worry, my son. I have absolute faith in you! Fight bravely, and show everyone who the next marquess of Pherae is!<br>
'''Roy:''' Yes, Father!


(After taking the castle)
===If Bors is alive===


'''Roy:''' Father! Lilina!
'''Lilina:''' Bors, I have a favor to ask of you.<br>
'''Bors:''' You needn't ask, milady. I will accompany Lord Roy in his travels and protect him with my very life.<br>
'''Lilina:''' Thank you, Bors.


'''Eliwood:''' Roy, is that you?
'''Lilina:''' Take care, Roy.<br>
'''Roy:''' I will. You too, Lilina.


'''Lilina:''' Roy!
[[Category:Scripts of Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade]]
 
'''Roy:''' Father! Lilina! ... Thank goodness, you're all right.
 
'''Eliwood:''' Roy, thanks for coming this far.
 
'''Roy:''' Of course, father. How is your health?
 
'''Eliwood:''' I'm fine. I'm still alive, see? But Roy, you do know why I called you back here?
 
'''Roy:''' I am to take over your role of leading Pherae's military and join the Lycia Alliance Army.
 
'''Eliwood:''' Yes. As you know, Bern has started to conquer Lycia. We must follow the ancient rule and send out our military to protect the land of Lycia.
 
'''Roy:''' Yes.
 
'''Eliwood:''' I really didn't want to send you out because you were still studying, but I'm not well... I would only be a hindrance to everyone else.
 
'''Roy:''' Father...
 
'''Lilina:''' Mister Eliwood, I will accompany Roy! My father is in charge of Lycia's main army. And I could use my magic to be of some help to Roy...
 
'''Eliwood:''' No, Lilina. You must return to Ostia.
 
'''Lilina:''' ... Why?
 
'''Eliwood:''' With Hector's absence, there is no one currently sitting on the throne of Ostia. The people must be feeling uptight as well. You, being the daughter of the marquess, must take the throne until Hector returns and ease the tension of the people. Am I wrong?
 
'''Lilina:''' ... No, sir.
 
'''Eliwood:''' Roy, first you must go to the Bern border and meet with the mercenary group that I have arranged a contract with. I'll send Merlinus along with you... He'll be very helpful with his knowledge.
 
'''Roy:''' Thank you for everything, father.
 
'''Eliwood:''' You'll be fine. You can do it! Go and fight, and show them who you are, the next Marquess of Pherae!
 
'''Roy:''' Yes!
 
'''Lilina:''' Bors, I have something to ask of you.
 
'''Bors:''' I know, my lady. I will accompany Roy in his travels and swear to protect him with my life.
 
'''Lilina:''' Thank you, Bors. Roy, be careful.
 
'''Roy:''' I know. You too, Lilina.
 
==Against Damas==
(Before battling him)
 
'''Damas:''' You damn idiots! Can't you guys take on these dastards?!
 
(After defeating him)
 
'''Damas:''' Wh... What the...?! S... Strong...
 
==Villages and houses==
'''Village:''' "Hey, hey! Aren't you knights going to the castle? This may not be much... But this is something we'd really like to offer you. Please use it well!" (5000 gold received)
 
'''House:''' "YOU! Guess what! Money is important! If you don't have it, your weapons will rust and you can't fight without your weapons!"
 
'''House:''' "Hey! If you wanna do well in battle you better use the terrain wisely. Like if you are in a forest, the trees will cover you! There's no way enemies will have an easy time in that situation."
 
'''House:''' "It's awful... Soldiers from Bern were able to cross the border... They laid an awful attack. And even if the allied lords strike back, Lord Eliwood.. He can no longer stand too well..."

Introduction

Man and dragon once coexisted in harmony. However, man shattered that harmony with a sudden onslaught.

A great war now known as the Scouring was fought for dominion of the land. Losses were tremendous for both sides, and in this war the very laws of nature itself were twisted and distorted, bringing chaos and unease...

Defeated and humbled, the dragons disappeared from the realm. Mankind then began to rebuild and repopulate their newly won land.

A milennium has passed since then...

__________________

(The map of Elibe appears)

After defeating the dragons, the humans of Elibe quickly spread their culture and civilization to the farthest reaches of the continent.

In the west lies the Kingdom of Etruria, which is widely considered to possess the most refined culture in all of Elibe. The Kingdom of Bern, with its powerful military and logical, pragmatic people, is located on the other side of the continent in the east.

These are the two most powerful nations in Elibe with the weaker nations situated between them. These smaller lands are... the Lycian League, whose numerous territories are independently ruled by a number of marquesses that are bound by a vow of allegiance; Ilia, where the people arduously till the frozen soil and many become mercenaries to earn money to survive; and Sacae, where various clans ride through the plains on horseback.

Although there were occasional clashes between these nations, the majority of the people of Elibe lived in peace. That peace, however, was not to last...

King Zephiel of Bern has commanded his forces to conquer the entirety of Elibe. Bern's armies first attacked Sacae and Ilia, ruthlessly massacring all who opposed them. Now, Bern is mounting a merciless invasion into Lycia.

Pherae is a territory of Lycia known for its beauty and honorable lords. Pherae's Lord Roy was studying in the great territory of Ostia when the invasion began. However, the sitting marquess and Roy's father, Eliwood, who has been ill, has sent for Roy to return to lead Pherae's soldiers in defending against Bern.

Marquess Hector of Ostia is Eliwood's long-time friend and confidant, and leads the council of lords in Lycia. At the time Eliwood sent for Roy, Marquess Ostia's daughter Lilina was in Pherae visiting Eliwood. Upon receiving his father's message, Roy hurries home, taking with him his vassals and Bors, a knight from Ostia who is responsible for Lilina's safety.

The story begins when Roy reaches the outskirts of Pherae...

Bandit: Boss! They've all hidden themselves inside the castle!
